Despite millions of fans watching on from either side of the border, both India and Pakistan captains are treating their match-up in the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2022 as just another game. For India's Mithali Raj, the match is the chance to build momentum as India go for a first World Cup title.
She is well aware of the pressure of playing against arch-rivals India in the Women's ODI World Cup opener against India next month but Pakistan captain Bismah Maroof hopes that the marquee match will inspire girls across the border to make a career in the sport. India are set to face Pakistan in their opener of the World Cup on March 6 at Tauranga, New Zealand. The quadrennial event will be held from March 4 to April 3 across six cities in New Zealand. “Pakistan vs India is indeed a great stage for any player to establish her credentials, but at the end of the day, it is a cricket match that has to be won by executing the basics right and keeping thing simple," Maroof, who is making a comeback after motherhood, told PTI Bhasha from Queenstown, New Zealand.
CHRISTCHURCH (New Zealand): Pakistan team reached Christchurch, New Zealand on Thursday for the upcoming ICC Women's Cricket World Cup. Taking to their Twitter, Pakistan Cricket Board wrote, "Karachi Dubai Auckland Christchurch, Our women's team have reached New Zealand for #CWC22."
